May have been introduced with tweaks I had to make to the "redirected" argument in http_loop (or was it retrieve_url?).

If it's a regression over 1.11.4, we should fix it in 1.12.x. Targeting there for now, until there's more information.

Using the latest version of wget, it appears that --convert-links doesn't work
when the URL being fetched is a redirect to another URL.  For example:

Server: www.host.com:

<base href="http://foo.host.com">
<a href="/foo">Foo</a>

If http://foo.host.com/foo redirects to http://bar.host.com/foo, then the data
for http://bar.host.com/foo gets downloaded and followed properly, but the URL
/foo gets rewritten improperly to http://foo.host.com/foo (should be
../bar.host.com/foo), which breaks the mirror.  Other, non-redirected links get
rewritten just fine.

Can anyone else confirm this behavior?

The command I'm running is:

wget --timeout=30 -E -H -p --convert-links -r -p --domains=host.com -e
robots=off -P host.com http://www.host.com/

Thanks in advance.
